Hey guys, im looking to create a new gaming pc and hand my old one to the missus so she can play games with me! Im 90% gaming 10% browsing but like at least 1TB harddrive to keep all my photos and music!

i have a budget max of £750 and play arma 3/SWTOR and Totalwar rome II the most! i was looking at a 760 GPU but i dont know really what im looking at!

currently in my current pc i have AMD fx 4100, gtx 560 se GPU, Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P motherboard and some budget x2 4gb of ram!

I want something better than the current setup i have as i had to settle for the first setup as had little money!

Case wise i had my eye on the Cooler Master K380 Midi Tower as long as the parts will fit!

I would really like if you guys could use your understanding of components and specs to create a nice gaming pc without the "ill use this motherboard cus its blue" sort of attitude i have lol because i really dont know what im looking at! Hope you can help! thanks Todd

EDIT: would like Win 7 64bit OS! none of the windows 8 crap :|

hmm that seems abit over the top really i dont think its necessary to have a 8 core processor! and i would rather have nvidia than amd for cards!
